Description
What It Is:
The My Family Helpers – What Do They Do? worksheet teaches children about common household chores and the family members who help with them. Students read each chore and write who usually completes that job—such as Mom, Dad, siblings, or themselves—building real-world understanding of responsibility and teamwork.
Why Use It:
This activity supports early social studies and SEL learning by helping students recognize shared responsibilities at home. It builds vocabulary, strengthens reading comprehension, and encourages reflection on how families cooperate. The worksheet also promotes independence and gratitude for the contributions of others.
How to Use It:
• Start with the previous worksheet, “Who Does This Job in the Family?”, to help students build familiarity with everyday family jobs.
• Guide students through each chore and discuss which family member might usually help in their household, noting that families may differ.
• Have students write the family member’s name or role (e.g., “Mom,” “Dad,” “Me,” “Sister”) in the blank space.
• Continue the sequence with the next worksheet, “Mother, Father, or Child?”, for additional practice identifying who performs common tasks at home.
Grade Level Suitability:
Best for Grades K–2.
• Kindergarten: Introduces family helpers with picture support.
• Grade 1: Strengthens writing and responsibility awareness.
• Grade 2: Encourages deeper reflection on family roles and cooperation.
Target Users:
Perfect for teachers, parents, homeschool educators, and ESL instructors teaching about chores, family roles, and daily routines.
